Arren
I came to school today. I wasn't going to but oh well.
It was halfway through my second class, Art when one of the teachers walked in.
"Could I have Frank, Arren and Mikey? They need to bring their stuff." Oh no.
We all walked over to the teacher and Frank said that she was taking us to the Principals office. We eventually got there, all three of us were joking around. And turns out, it was the principles office.
Fuck.
My sister knew about the fight so I didn't have to worry much. We went in and saw Gerard and Ray there already. Oh fuck.
"Who else do I need to get?"
"Get Bob and tell him to wait outside."
"Okay."
"Oh and get Bert!" There was a muffled yes. She then walked off and presumably to get this Bob dickhead and this Bert kid.
"You all are in isolation for the next week. Ray is getting excused."
All of us were pissed off with this. Apart from Ray kinda. Cause he didn't have to be in isolation or get expelled. Or whatever short-term exclusion is.
Ray did something to his leg or those fucks did it to him, I'm not sure. But. Okay.
"Why are we getting in trouble?"
"Well, you were fighting. It's that obvious."
"Mikey wasn't, he was helping Ray."
"Is this true Toro?"
"Yea, he was helping me up while Frank was holding a guy off me and Arren was just tryna get the lighter and stuff out of his hands, Gerard was there to help."
"Alright, Arren and Frank get two days in isolation, Gerard and Mikey get a day, you happy?"
"Yea it's okay I guess." Obviously, Mikey was the one who said that he's like one of the good kids.
I and Frank just groaned, why? Why us two? I guess nothing can be done now. We continued to listen to this stupid ass lecture. Whenever the teacher turned around I'd throw paper at Frank or he would throw it at me.
We almost got caught.
It did hit Mikey and Ray and Gerard a few times. Whoops.
We got bored of that and just threw a few pens at each other.
We did stop doing that. We were finally allowed to go, the other three had left before us, lucky. The Way boys went off to iso, Ray went off with Bert I think. And then Bob and the other kid was brought in with me and Frank. We had to apologize. Which was bullshit? The other two apologized and then we all could leave, Bob and the other kid got a week of iso! Hahaha!
We went off to iso and had to explain why we were there and then was put in this room at the back, waiting for the counsellors or something, I'm not sure.
"Why are we in trouble though? We were just defending Ray?"
"I'm not sure but its bull ain't it?"
"Yeah."
"Agreed."
"Anyways, what should we do?"
"I don't know, like just that twenty questions thing?"
"Oh, sure I guess."
We did that for a good half an hour before we were told it was the end of the day. And we could leave.
We (Gerard, Frank, Mikey and me) all decided to go round mine. My sister said she would be out until late tomorrow. So I can stay around friends or have friends stay around.
"Don't your parents or siblings stay home at all?"
"Dads on business trips, Mom's gone back to Ireland for now and my sister's out."
"Oh okay. Cool."
"Yea I guess it i-"
"DUDE YOU ARE FROM IRELAND?"
"Yea I am, calm down dude."
"Okay."
We arrived at mine. And then I thought
"Do you think Ray could come round?"
"Probably."
"Okay, I don't have his number I think so could one of you guys text or call him?"
"Yea I'll do it."
"Thanks, Gerard."
"No problem," I told them where shit was so I didn't need to explain it over and over.
We heard a knock on the door and just guessed it was Ray.
It wasn't. And then we saw Ray behind this dude.
"Hey?"
"Sorry, uh hey my name's Bert, I'm looking after Ray while he's injured."
"Oh okay, come in then guys."
They came in and I shut the door again. No one else should be coming here. Turns out Bert was pretty cool actually.
We continued to talk all through the night till people started to sleep. First it was Mikey, then Bert and then Ray, then me so Frank and Gerard slept after. It was fun. Apart from iso. But other wise today was great
